SEMELA Yacht Description
Presented by DMA Yachting, the majestic charter yacht SEMELA is a 74 ft motor yacht. The most valuable elements of SEMELA are her impeccable styling and culinary experience. SEMELA spends the summer and winter season in France. She was constructed by the renowned boatbuilder ABSOLUTE in 2024. The spacious yacht layout features 4 cozy cabins and easily accommodates a maximum of 8 guests.
SEMELA is classified as a superyacht. The prominent section of the yacht, expansive aft deck, leads to the well-equipped and inviting main saloon. The main saloon is a gathering space that is well-equipped to shield from the elements in comfort and enjoyment and serves as a location of entertainment. 4 comfortable cabins are purposefully laid out for maximum privacy and comfort.

Price Terms
Plus Expenses - add APA to the price you see
Plus Expenses arrangement includes the boat and crew only (without tip).
All additional/variable expenses such as Gas and Food are deducted from an Advance Provisioning Allowance (APA) - an additional deposit that is added on top of the charter price.
The expenses, such as provisioning, fuel, marina fees, are deducted from the APA. The APA is based on the price of the yacht and ranges from 15% (crewed sailing yachts) to 30% (motor yachts with higher fuel consumption).
For a motor yacht like SEMELA, the expected APA is 25% to 40% of the charter price (€12,500 - €20,000), making the charter cost €62,500 to €70,000. Exact amount will be confirmed after inquiry.
You can actively control these expenses in your preference sheet (local vs. imported beverages) and by choice of itinerary (distances traveled).
The remainder of the APA is returned after charter.
